The Lion
Tracker's Guide to Life
Boyd Varty
The
Lion Tracker's Guide to Life is
basically two books in one. On the one hand, it follows Varty and his
friends and fellow trackers Alex and Renias into the South African
bush as they track down a lion. It relates their journey, which is
full of adventure and years of experience getting to know what the
land can tell them. On another level, this is a book about helping
the reader find or track their own path in life. As Varty shows
throughout, life is about the call. But in order to hear that call,
you must be listening. If you are looking but not seeing you may very
well miss your path, and as a result, life might pass you by before
you even notice.
Varty's
story and thoughts really resonated with me. This is definitely a
well-written, not to mention well-presented, clever little gem of a
book. The profound words and advice that Varty has in this slim
volume might change your life if you are open and listening. So, stay
alert, don't miss what's important, be that a lion in the bush or
anything else you desire to experience.
